Hi,
I put in a brand new 250 GB hard drive and added the below mentioned info. Everything has been working fine for over a year now.
Several months ago, I read some positive reviews for Easy Cleaner. I used this a couple times and all was fine.
But for a few months now, my computer takes forever to load up. It lags on the black screen then it has only black, it sticks on the screen with the status bar…and it takes forever for Nortons to load. But all will load after 5-10 minutes.
Now, on the flip side, if I have any reason to restart the computer, it always goes straight to the screen that asks if I want to start in safe mode, normal mode and so on. I just click normal mode, or let the timer run out and then my computer starts up, but slowly again.
I also read UndeletePlus is a good recovery tool, and I pulled everything up it says is on the C:\ drive but I have no clue what I am looking to recover to be honest.
But I truly believe this issue was caused by deleting something that should not have been touched.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Windows XP Pro
Office 2003
Norton’s Internet Security 2006 but it’s current
1 GB RAM
Then misc software such as JASC, Messenger, APC UPS, printer software, Nero, WMP etc.
